  1. I took the Brom out for the first time in weeks and found that the back
    brake was not working very well ,when I checked the brake I found that the
    retaining nuts holding the brake on were missing!!and that the whole thing
    was coming off and also that the thingy that goes against the down tube,
    which is fixed to the brake bolt when folded, was also missing .This meant
    that when I tried to lift the bike into the car it unfolded.What a tangle I
    got in.Can anyone tell me where I can get a replace ment fast.and what is
    the correct name for that part (thingy) thank you..cas

    It seems to be called a "Brompton Lower Stop Disc".

    Two mail order sources are:

    I'm sure you'll find others. Your friendly local Brompton dealer will surely
    stock spares as well.

    Note that the brakes were upgraded between the Mk2 and Mk3 Bromptons. I
    don't know if Mk3 will fit older bikes.
